📚 KNOWLEDGE BASE

Guides & Tutorials

Everything you need to install, activate, configure and get the most out of Botomout.

🚀 Getting started

What do I need to run the EA?

An MT4 or MT5 account with a supported broker, the EA file, and an active license. A 24/7 VPS is recommended so the EA runs even when your PC is off.

Buy vs Rent — which should I choose?

Buy a one-time EA License if you want it permanently. Choose Rent Signal ($49/mo) to try the system with a low upfront cost and upgrade later.

🧩 Installation

How do I install the EA on MetaTrader?

Open MetaTrader → File → Open Data Folder → place the file in MQL5\Experts (or MQL4\Experts) → restart the Navigator (right-click → Refresh) → drag the EA onto a chart. Full steps on the Setup Guide.

Why must I whitelist a URL?

The EA validates your license with our secure server. In MT4/MT5: Tools → Options → Expert Advisors → tick "Allow WebRequest for listed URL" → add https://www.botomout.com.

⚙️ Settings explained

What are the Volume / ATR / Depth guards?

They widen the grid spacing during high volatility or fast markets to reduce risk. The widest of the three applies at any moment, so the system gets more cautious exactly when conditions are riskier.

What is trailing take-profit?

Once a group reaches its target, the EA can trail the profit and lock in gains if price gives back a set percentage, instead of exiting immediately.

How does the drawdown cap work?

You set a maximum grid drawdown percentage; the EA stops opening new averaging trades once that limit is approached, protecting the account.

💳 Payments & licensing

How do I pay?

We accept crypto (USDT/BTC and more) with an instant 10% discount. Your product activates automatically once payment is confirmed.

How is my license activated?

After purchase, open your dashboard → "Activate EA License" → enter your MT4/MT5 account number. It's licensed instantly.

Can I move the EA to another account?

Yes — update your account number in the dashboard or contact support. Each license covers the number of accounts in your plan.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

Panel shows "ADD URL IN MT5 ALLOWED LIST"

The WebRequest URL isn't whitelisted — redo the whitelist step above.

Panel shows "NOT AUTHORISED"

Your account isn't licensed yet — activate it in the dashboard or email support with your account number.

EA isn't trading

Check that Algo Trading is enabled (toolbar button green), the license shows VALID, and your broker allows the symbols configured.
